In February 1984 grading operations associated with a proposed subdivision north of the U.S. 17/701 By-Pass in Mount Pleasant uncovered what eventually was identified as a small cemetery. After completion of the legal notifications required by South Carolina law, the developer contracted for the removal and forensic study of the individuals prior to their reburial in the spring of 1985. As part of the study of this cemetery, a detailed analysis of the coffin hardware recovered from the site was conducted.
